From The Doctor’s Desk… New Beginnings

The Mayan calendar has completed its cycle. Completion brings on a new set of opportunities. Now is the time to create the results we truly want. Greatness exists in all of us and our work is to draw out that greatness from within ourselves. We all aspire to succeed. What habits might we be practicing that hold us back from manifesting our dreams?

We tend to put limits on ourselves, point fingers at others, or blame our misfortune on problems that we think we have no control over. We even argue for our limitations in some cases and, unfortunately, we can end up living for years with our negative self-limiting beliefs.

Achieving greatness requires a conscious focus; a focus that makes us 100% responsible for the life we create. Everything that happens to us is a result of the specific actions we take or do not take. This is most apparent in relationships, financial success, and in our fitness and health. Only one person is responsible for the life we find ourselves living.

Creating positive healthy changes begins with a plan and sticking to that plan in working toward your goals. If you don’t have a plan you’re more likely to fall short of what it is you wish to achieve. Decide what you want and map out a workable plan, with specific steps and a reasonable time frame. It might help to discuss your ideas with someone you trust for honest feedback and input. It also helps to believe that you are worthy and capable of making positive change happen. Remember this, “If it’s going to Be, it’s up to Me.”

Once you start taking the necessary steps to change, one step at a time, a greater happiness and personal well-being will ultimately follow. It is our birthright to be happy and content in this lifetime. Welcome to the new life cycle where real opportunity and change awaits us. Carpe diem.
